17 IDENTITIES OF LOVE
Bisi Adewale
We have heard a lot about love; we have read so much about it and have seen a lot about it and the endpoint of it sometimes makes one re-think whether it is really worth it to be in love.
17 IDENTITIES OF LOVE
1. Love is not blind – it is only infatuation and lust that are blind.
2. There is nothing like “blindly in love” – you can be blindly in lust or infatuated but love does not make blind.
3. There is nothing like love at first sight- You can not have real love toward a total stranger, only lust and infatuation can be at first sight.
4. There is nothing like “Madly in love” -love does not make anybody mad or lose their mind, sexual desire can do that. It is wrong to say I am madly in love, you can only be deeply in love, if you see anybody that is madly in love, advise him to see a psychiatrist.
5. You don’t fall into real love, you grow into it. Love is not a ditch which you fall into.
6. Love is not just a beautiful feeling, it is a commitment
7. Love is not a sexual urge.
8. It is not only based on the outward appearance
9. True love waits till the wedding night before sex.
10. Love is not proud
11. True love is not without control.
12. Love is not robbery
13.Love honours marriage
14. Love is the bedrock of a good marriage.
15. Love is not trade by barter: – It is not 50/50, it is 100% giving.
16. Love is obedient – It obeys God and constituted authority
17. Love is a sacrifice
